My friend's mum has beautiful skin and she says that it's because she's always drunk cabbage water. I always thought she taking the p.

Can't say I cook with cabbage much, maybe I should start just for the water

when i read this earlier i read it as the water you boiled your egg in i wondered how that would be benificial LOL

 

[willbefabulousat26]

Haha ellie that is funny! Funnily enough I have sometimes been tempted to use egg water to make jelly up with but the thought of tiny feathers/egg dirt has so far put me off!

Now, my mum (yes again, bless her!) used to say that water in which eggs had been boiled gave you warts! Bonkers

Warts?! Your mum sounds like she has an old wives tale for everything
Definitely not making warty-feathery jelly now.

My mum used to say that too to stop us playing about with eggshells (we must have been too poor for toys lol)
